On the heels of their participation in the historic research that resulted in the detection of gravitational waves, West Virginia University astrophysicists continue to plow new ground ...
Results of the XENON100 experiment are a bright spot in the search for dark matter.The team of international scientists involved in the project demonstrated the sensitivity of their detector...
Newly dedicated observatory to search for gravitational waves
Newly dedicated observatory gravitational waves
2015/5/25
Seeking to expand how we observe and understand the universe where we live, the National Science Foundation today helped dedicate the Advanced Laser Gravitational Wave Observatories (Advanced LIGO) at...
A Search for UHE Tau Neutrinos with IceCube
IceCube neutrino telescope tau neutrinos double bangs
2012/2/23
The first dedicated search for ultra-high energy (UHE) tau neutrinos of astrophysical origin was performed using the IceCube detector in its 22-string configuration. The search also had sensitivity to...
The Search for High-Mass X-ray Binaries in the Phoenix Dwarf Galaxy
High-Mass X-ray Binaries Phoenix Dwarf Galaxy
2012/2/23
We report on the first X-ray images of the Phoenix dwarf galaxy, taken with \emph{XMM-Newton} in July 2009. This local group dwarf galaxy shares similarities with the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) incl...
Radio Interferometric Planet Search II: Constraints on sub-Jupiter-Mass Companions to GJ 896A
Interferometric Planet Constraints sub-Jupit
2011/10/10
We present results from the Radio Interferometric Planet (RIPL) search for compan- ions to the nearby star GJ 896A. We present 11 observations over 4.9 years. Fitting astrometric parameters to the dat...
A number of so-called ultra-cool white dwarfs have been detected in different surveys so far. However, based on anecdotal evidence it is believed that most or all of these ultra-cool white dwarfs are ...
Search for neutrino point sources with the IceCube Neutrino Observatory
neutrino point sources the IceCube Neutrino Observatory
2011/1/13
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a kilometer-scale detector currently under construction at the South Pole. The full detector will comprise 5,160 photomultipliers (PMTs) deployed on 86 strings from...
A search for Star-Planet-Interactions in the upsilon Andromedae system at X-ray and optical wavelengths
Star-Planet-Interactions the upsilon Andromedae system
2011/1/11
Close-in, giant planets are expected to influence their host stars via tidal or magnetic interaction. But are these effects strong enough in suitable targets known so far to be observed with today's i...

Mining SDSS Multiple Populations Globular Clusters
2011/1/10
Several recent studies have reported the detection of an anomalous color spread along the red giant branch (RGB) of some globular clusters (GC) that appears only when color indices including a near ul...
Latest results of the direct dark matter search with the EDELWEISS-2 experiment
the direct dark matter search the EDELWEISS-2 experiment
2011/1/13
EDELWEISS-2 is a Ge-bolometer experiment located in the underground laboratory Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane (LSM, France). For the second phase of the experiment, the collaboration has developed n...
A search for gravitational waves associated with the August 2006 timing glitch of the Vela pulsar
gravitational waves glitch of the Vela pulsar
2010/11/16
The physical mechanisms responsible for pulsar timing glitches are thought to excite quasi-normal mode oscillations in their parent neutron star that couple to gravitational wave emission. In August 2...
Search for Keplerian periods in light variations of T Tauri stars and Herbig Ae stars
Keplerian periods T Tauri stars Herbig Ae stars
2010/11/15
Long-term, uniform series of UBVR observations of T Tauri and Herbig Ae stars obtained
over 20 yr at the Maidanak Observatory as part of the ROTOR program are analyzed. We find
a linear relationship...
